Reboot and Pattern Lock Issues

I am having an issue trying to use Tasker and Automateit to reboot my phone. When trying to manually reboot via terminal emulator (su -c reboot), I get a "not permitted" message. Also, when I try to use Pattern Lock with Secure settings, I get an error message that it could not be performed (or similar - can't remember exact wording). I never had this issue when I had my MyTouch 4g (Glacier) which was running a JB 4.2.2 ROM. Any suggestions or fixes?
I am rooted with s-off and bootloader unlocked. I have SuperUser providing access to all apps mentioned. I also have BusyBox installed to the latest and greatest. Finally, I am running the ARHD 12.1 ROM.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I did notice that my system/xbin folder is missing quite a bit of the files as the system/bin folder, including the reboot file. I assume it doesn't need to mirror it exactly, but should it have the reboot file also? If not, should there be a symbolic link in the xbin folder to link the reboot file in the bin folder? Thanks in advance for any and all help.

[Q] Z3C just rooted and Titanium Backup issue

Hello there, I just rooted my Z3C 5803 phone with the exploit founded yesterday (.93 FW) and first thing I did was to install Titanium Backup because there were a lot of programs I wanted to remove for good from this device and also wanted to integrate newer versions into the Rom. Whenever I try to integrate, for example, a newer YouTube, Google Chrome, Google Play Store version into the Rom, TB seems to keep trying and trying forever.
Checking into the TB FAQ i found this:
"14. I tried to integrate system app updates or to convert user apps to system apps but it didn’t work. Why?
These features require a NAND unlocked ("S-OFF") device, in order to write to the ROM.
Depending on the software, some S-ON devices may "remember" modifications made to /system for a while, or until the next reboot. That is not enough for our purpose.
Please search the Internet for information on how to make your particular device S-OFF."
.......but, of course, for me that is Chinese. Doesn´t mean that if I´m root, I can anything I want to the Rom? If not, what do I need to make the phone S-OFF?
Hope someone could help this noob!
Thanks in advance.

yes, you can remove system app or convert user app into system app just make make sure you grant its superuser request

Thanks Harry . Never used that app before, will have to read a guide about how to do that. I always used TB for that in my old Samsung Xcover 2 phone with Jelly Bean.

I had a similar problem until i installed dualrecovery. Now the rw permission persists after reboot.

But I DO have RW permissions over the system folder..............according to ES File Explorer I have "rwxr-xr-x" and those stay after I reboot my device. I can use ES File Explorer to copy files wherever I want. Root is working just fine, is just TB that cannot integrate stuff onto the ROM (neither remove, I only can freeze apps, but I want to remove them for good).
my TiBu seems to work, theres no errors. But it doesnt actually seem to work. I cant uninstall any system apps. It does the process says complete but the apps remain.
Any Solution?
Thanks

This fixed my xposed framework issues! Thank you!
Yeah, that fixed the permissions to install Xposed, but that doesnt work to let Titanium Backup modify the files in the rom. MKLCF2, could you please try to integrate, let's say YOUTUBE or GOOGLE PLAY into the rom ?
I'm still at work and cannot test anything
Try
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
after that you should be able to mess around with Titanium Backup
Thanks for that tip but 2 things still happens.......I'm still unable to integrate YOUTUBE or GOOGLE PLAY newer versions into the rom AND, everytime I reboot the device is like I lose that option and I have to do the entries again on the terminal..........for example, Xposed keeps asking me "are you root?" when I try to install/update it.
Is there any other solution to this?
TIA

Two things to check
1)Are you rooted?
1b) Just because you rooted doesn't mean you actually are rooted
2)Does xposed have root permission?

I checked with Root Checker and it's working also fine on other app that requires a root.
about giving the permission what do you mean ? through SuperSU ?
yes I grant xposed when it asked me so what els ?
I think it's a problem in the z3 because it's a dual sim not like other phones !!!

Try installing it via recovery, it has a better chance of working IF you have a custom recovery as well.
I already solve my problem..
Just need re root from start until update to the last fw with pre root flashable and do install recovery once again...
And dont forget change to rw via terminal in your pc

just re root like usually you do and after that , update the FW to the lastest with pre root FW..
then when you finish..
in my experience my dual rec is gone so you cant do anything in recovery mode thats make you cant change system from ro to rw
to make recovery enabled again your phone after update..
do this
run your terminal in your pc inside giefroot folder then when the terminal already open
just copy command in below to your terminal pc..
just remember dont forget connect your phone to pc and make sure your debug is activate
adb push systemrw.sh /data/local/tmp
adb push modulecrcpatch /data/local/tmp
adb push wp_mod.ko /data/local/tmp
adb shell
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/systemrw.sh
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/modulecrcpatch
chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/wp_mod.ko
su
cd /data/local/tmp
./systemrw.sh

xmodgames issue with supersu

Hi all,
I have SuperSU Pro 2.46 installed on a lifetab P8912.
Everything worked and I got checked with rootchecker that everything works fine.
Xmodgames also starts with the message that it has root permissions granted.
The ClashofClans mod has a problem: "Mod start fails. Please confirm XModgames is authorized with root permission".
What can I do ? Does anybody else encounter the same problem or fixed that already ?
THANKS a lot for your help,
Alecz

This should be brought to the attention of the developer of "ClashofClans" -- it might be looking for 'su' at a hard-coded path. You could test for this (and perhaps even fix the problem for you) by copying or linking '/system/xbin/su' to other common paths -- such as '/system/bin/su'.
At a terminal enter:
which su
It should reply '/system/xbin/su'.
Frank
hmm, thanks , but perhaps I didn't find the right shell to work with:
I do not have write access to that folder /system/bin
Shall I chmod 777 to that folder, at least temporary ?
Sorry for not having worked since a long time on linux..

That partition is normally mounted for reading only, not for writing. Remount it as writable, copy the file, then remount as read-only again:
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp /system/xbin/su /system/bin
mount -o remount,ro /system
The SuperSU installation script will delete that copy when you flash the update again so it isn't permanent, and there is only a small chance that this is the problem.
Frank
Hi Frank,
your mount description worked fine, but still I get the error when starting the mod from xmodgames.....
Perhaps you got another tip or trick .....

In a terminal, run
logcat -c
Then run the application which is failing to get root; then immediately after it fails run
logcat -d > /sdcard/dump.txt
Then examine '/sdcard/dump.txt' to see if it contains an error message which might help.
Frank
Hi Frank,
done, but in the txt file it is a bunch of - at least for me - magic !
I can find lotz of krsdk stuff, looks like a former try of kingroot is still existant and might prevent something there, or perhaps that's because xmodgames is checking for kingroot ...
Really do not know .....
Anyway,
I think I am getting closer , but still the last mile to take

That's a very reasonable guess. I assume that you rooted with Kingo Root then replaced that with SuperSU. Maybe Kingo Root is still active on your device. Maybe SuperSU did not install and the root checker found Kingo's 'su'. Take a good look at both installations and try to figure out what is there. Does the SuperSU Android application run? See if 'su' will tell you whose it is by running
su --version
Frank
Kingroot didn't work when I tried it, therefore I went through the SuperSU installation.
su --version gives me
"2.45:SUPERSU"
Best regards,
Alex

I can't see what's happening from here but the cause could very well be the incomplete KingRoot attempt. It might be that your solution is to revert to stock to remove that Kingo stuff then root again using the procedure that succeeded.

Same problem with me also i really need the mod working, few other apps like freedom is working but gltools arent working
The ClashofClans mod has a problem: "Mod start fails. Please confirm XModgames is authorized with root permission".
same problem with me also..
xmodgames needs to be updated, not SuperSU.
Some problem for me with Xmod for Boom Beach. Before i updated to Android 5.0.1 it was working.
Edit: Had an old Xmod version which i installed from titanium backup. New Xmod Version fixed the problem for me.
i have this problems but i have runned root please help me

i have Samsung Tab 10.5 (SN-T805) .. and it has the same issue
me and one of my expert friends analyzed the application to see what is the problem, we found out that XMODGAMES doesn't check the root properly
So, if there was an expert person that can reverse engineer the application and fix this issue, that would be great
PS: we don't have time to do it, because of our final college exams, we might do it in the summer.

My xmodgames can't work either?have you found a way to fix it?
Here is the solution How to run Xmod games in android lollipop

I think I've soft bricked my phone p7 L10

So I followed this guide to root my phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-p7/general/rooted-p7-l10-609-t3003605
Which worked. After that I decided I wanted a bash shell for my phone so I followed this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=727566
I couldn't use adb remount because it gave me permission denied so I decided to use:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
And then I followed it up with the commands in the guide.
When I exited out of the adb shell I couldn't adb shell into it anymore.
It's giving me the following error:
Code:
- exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: Permission denied (13) -
This is likely because in the guide you replace the default /system/bin/sh with the bash version.
And in the guide it doesn't tell you to chmod it. I think this is where the problem lies.
Then I thought maybe I could open up a shell inside my phone with a terminal emulator.
However the shell crashes and closes automatically.
Then I thought maybe I could use a file explorer to change sh.old back to the normal sh.
Unluckily I haven't yet given root permission to my file explorer so I couldn't.
I noticed that my root also got broken when I checked whether I was still rooted.
So I tryed re-rooting it with iRoot which didn't work.
Any idea on how I could fix this problem?
I still have adb access but I can't use any kind of shell not on the phone nor using adb.
EDIT: because of this I am now unable to change my EMUI theme, I also can't connect to wifi anymore.
Also, I tried a factory reset which didn't work...
EDIT: okay so I've made a backup of my current ROM through TWRP and now I am attempting to install the stock firmware of B133SP01 through local update.
After that I'm going to locally update to B602 and B609 again. Hopefully that will fix it...
EDIT: Seems like I can't install the stock firmware it's giving me an error message saying that it failed. And yes I have flashed my recovery back to stock B609. I suppose this has something to do with sh not working correctly...
Have I screwed myself for life?
I'm still hoping that someone can come in and help me fix it. If not I might be doomed.
